Hello young photographers! Sorry for the delay, we had 10 Celynnen Photography weddings this month in gorgeous weather!

In fact the sun was shining so beautifully I would have thought more of you would have taken up the backlighting challenge!

Essentially the trick is to line up the subject with the sun so that you have a nice halo but no flare. If you’ve tried that, you might have found the camera tries to under-expose the image because it thinks things are too bright. So you need to ask the camera to overexpose.

Using the Aperture Priority mode (A on Nikon cameras, Av on Canon) press the +/- button and turn the command dial at the back of the camera towards the + sign.

Give it a go and tell me how you get on! Another way of experimenting is by using a flash, especially when you use it off the camera as you can control the direction of the light.

All you need is a DSLR as most of them come with a wireless control system built in and flashes like the Calumet Genesis 692! The Genesis 692 is great because it’s a really high performance flash but at a fraction of the price of equivalent Nikon or Canon flashes.

Of course that flash needs to sit on a light stand or a monopod held by a friend (that’s what we usually do) and for that you need a cold shoe like the frio by Enlight Photo Pro , the absolute best coldshoe by far because it’s the only one that you can truly be sure won’t drop your expensive flash!

So in order to help you on your way to using off camera flash, we’re giving you a frio for free! Well, not all of you, just Dion Reece who won with his interesting reflection image! Hope you use that creativity to use off-camera flash soon!

And don’t forget to keep sending images and questions as next month we are giving away a really cool LOWEPRO Nova Sport 17L AW shoulder bag!
